maps

I was wondering if there is actually some way to find markers near my position using leaflet.js. The first think to come to my head is to store lat and lng of my position and then iterate over an array of lat and lng markers placing them in an array an then sort that array. I am not sure if this is a good option because if you have a million markers in the map is going to take a while. Pseudo code var myLatLng = [34,56]; var markers = [[20,30],[10,20],[12,-100],[54,90],[-10, -20],[20,20]]; var closests = []; function findNearestMarker (myPosition, nearestMarkers){ for(var i = 0; i <

I'm saving the Zoom and Location of the Google Map API setting in cookies as the user adjusts his map. When they come back the map is at the same place. The function works most of the time: var h = JSON.stringify(map.getCenter(), null, 2); jQuery.cookies.set("YD44635center",h,cookieOptions); On the decode side using: locationVar = jQuery.cookies.get("YD44635center"); var temp = ""; // for testing: for(var x in locationVar){ temp += x + "\n"; } alert(temp); To see what I'm getting, most of the time, is: Qa; Pa; So I set my code to load the map with those variables and everything is fine. Then

I'm brand new to web technologies, and in researching a web app that I want to create I got a little bogged down. I want to be able to use a Google Map on my site, including the functionality that allows you to use layers and draw shapes and lines on top of it, but I'm confused at the difference between the Google Maps API and Google Maps Engine and which one would best suit me. Is one of those a better option for me? There seems to be a lot of red tape on getting Maps Engine for a site, but I'm unclear on if Maps API has all the functionality I'd want. Sorry for the beginner question, but I

The code below is creating a new map called nameTable , then adding an entry named example to it, then trying to print the name property of the Value. When I run it, it seems that the plus operation didn't add a new entry to the map like I thought it would. So what am I doing wrong? class Person(name1: String, lastName1: String, age1: Int){ var name: String = name1 var lastName: String = lastName1 var age: Int = age1 } var nameTable: MutableMap<String, Person> = mutableMapOf() var example = Person("Josh", "Cohen", 24) fun main (args: Array<String>){ nameTable.plus(Pair("person1", example)) for

What i have done so far: i'm developing an application where i have to display more than(50K) points/Markers on the Navteq map divided into different segments. for example: if i have 50K points i will divide all points into different segments. if i divide 50K points into 50 segments each segment would have 1000 points (may not be 50 segments , it may depend). right now it is working but it takes long time and hangs to render all the points on the MAP.so that i would like to perform segmentation displaying to display only few points with clustering. so that i can get an idea of how the segment
